ton defeat Memphis yesterday.
Though the game abounded in errors,
1t was, perhaps, the most exciting one
played here this season. The Charles.
tons started with run getting in the
first inning, and at the beginning
OF the fifth inning they had six scores
to tLeir credit, while the home team
had nothing to show but row OF
siphers. But in this inning Andrews
broke the ice and got in home run
hit, bringing in two men. This seemed
10 infuse new life into the Browne,
and from that on they played to win.
In the seventh ipniI < they tied
the score, and would have taken the
lead but for a rank decision by The
umpire. Phelan ran down to third on
G. McKeough's grounder to Hines.
He ran over the base little, but by
good slide got his hands on the base
and was never touched. But Suck
called him out even before C)Icoran
received the ball. This ended our
chances Of winning. Ia their half OF
this inning the visitors again took the
lead and kept it, winning by scoie OF

the early part Of the game WAS miser.
able, and come very rotten playing
was done all around. Geo. McGsough
occupied the point, and, considering
the poor support accorded him, did
very well. Hupg!er pitched good
game for Charleston, but he, too, was
poorly supported. The ChaIlestoDs
played good ball up to the seventh
Inning, when they wert to pieces and
allowed the Browns 10 pile up four
runs. Phelan played mngni6cently at
second, having five put outs and four
assists to bis credit. He made three
hits and stole four bsies. Doyle played
at short, and though he made bad
throw, be msde up for 1t by making o
beautiful stop OF hot grounder.
